Seriously, Not Sorry

Being serious. Sometimes I hear people say that they pride themselves on not taking themselves too seriously. That they’re able to just go with the flow and see where it takes them. As if, taking oneself seriously is a bad thing. Well, I reject that idea. We, as people, and especially as women, should take ourselves very seriously. Because if we don’t, then who will?

And I don’t mean this in the sense that we have to be serious people. I mean that our person, our authentic self, must be serious. Take yourself seriously as hell. Do not apologize for being who you are or for who you are not. Be serious about who you are. Don’t let anyone diminish what you’ve worked for and what you still desire to accomplish. Take.Yourself.Seriously. Respect from others starts with respecting yourself.

When we stop apologizing for being who we are, that’s when we start taking ourselves seriously.

About Me

"Lead us from the unreal to the real. Lead us from darkness to light. Lead us from death to immortality" – Sanskrit Mantra

My tag line is this: Imagine Immortality. It’s not about living forever. No one would actually want to live forever. What we want, instead, is time. Time to live, time to love, time to laugh and time to find ourselves. I imagine there will be a moment when we have all the time we need to accomplish our greatest feats and be our greatest selves. That’s why I imagine immortality.

From the lips of our mortal bodies, our words will grant us immortality.
